Am I just knackered or is there a ghost of a line?

I know, I know, I need to wait a couple of days and do another test, but anyone who has been on the IVF rollercoaster knows that many of us take leave of our senses in the two-week-wait!

As my tests have just been delivered, I had an impulse to try one, even though it's only 4 days after embryo transfer (5 day blast). It's not my first pee of the day either. But I'm sure I can see the ghost of a line?

For transparency I'm going to add at this point that after 4 cycles of IVF we were lucky enough to have our little girl. This is our last embryo and if it doesn't work, we know how lucky we are to be parents at all. It would be like winning the lottery twice!

But . . . maybe it's possible?

Keeping everything crossed for you - I know the emotional rollercoaster of the faint line all too well!

ScrambledOrPoached · 05/12/2022 21:05

I see it too. Good luck!

NurseP · 05/12/2022 21:10

Congratulations!! I couldn't see a line on your first post but I can see on your most recent one, clear as day!

Thelotusflower · 05/12/2022 21:12

Congratulations!!

Soddingchristmas · 05/12/2022 21:14

Oh I am sooooo happy for you! Keeping everything crossed for you! What a lovely time of year for it to happen too!

CarefreeMe · 05/12/2022 21:14

Can’t see it on the first one but I can on the second ones.

I’m a bit of a Debbie downer though and wouldn’t get excited until I have confirmation.

Fingers crossed and please keep us up to date!

YoSofi · 05/12/2022 21:16

I could see it on both and I didn’t even have to zoom in!

Congratulations!

Isntitakward · 05/12/2022 21:28

There is definitely, I can see it.

Ifeellikeateenageragain · 05/12/2022 21:35

Line!!! ☺️

Shitfather · 05/12/2022 22:15

Yep! In both pics. Saw it immediately in the first one. Had to look closer in the 2nd. Best of luck OP!!!

My -really faint only I can see it- line is snoring his head off in his bedroom at 5.5yrs old

Really hope it's all good

BlackeyedSusan · 05/12/2022 22:45

My one of those is currently chuntering and complaining at a sibling.

uncomfortablydumb53 · 05/12/2022 22:53

That is a very clear positive on this evenings test!
Congratulations

caffelattetogo · 05/12/2022 22:55

Congratulations! We had similar. Miraculous fresh transfer one was followed by miraculous frozen transfer two. It's been almost a year and I still can't believe it. Fingers crossed for you.

Choccolatte · 05/12/2022 22:59

Everything crossed for you :)

Yes you're knackered ... There is no second line.

I don't. Most people on this thread do.

Tinyhappypeople · 05/12/2022 23:16

I can see it… I saw my first glimpse of a line this time
last year at 4dp5dt. I took him to see Father Christmas today 🥰. Really hope that this is good news for you

@PurpleButterflyWings no - there's a clear line in the op's latest post.
Your snarky attitude isn't needed.

ladydimitrescu · 05/12/2022 23:17

This evening's test is a clear positive op - congratulations 🥳

Swannning · 05/12/2022 23:18

Definitely a line Flowers

I'm just being honest though. OP asked 'can you see a second line?' And I can not. It's not 'snarky' to say I can't see it ... Grow up.

Cheeeeislifenow · 05/12/2022 23:24

I NEVER see the lines but I can absolutely see that congratulations op x
